After many requests Thomas is joined by Travis Mateer to cover Eddington, Ari Aster's 2025 neo-Western political satire and early-Covid period piece. We break down the film's portrayal of technology, social media, conspiracy theories, Covid, Wokeness, and data collection, situating its messaging within the context of the cultural transitions and inter-elite warfare of the last half decade. While many have called the film meta-political or omni-political, comments from Aster and a careful reading of Eddington reveal the clear ideological agenda of this very sophisticated psyop. To further understand Aster's worldview, we also explore Beau Is Afraid, his incredibly unpleasant 2023 epic surrealistic horror tragicomedy, which gives fascinating insights into some of the ethnic and religious roots of Hollywood's fixation on the archetype of the devouring mother. Finally, we discuss Bugonia, Yorgos Lanthimos' 2025 dark comedy thriller, which similarly to Eddington, is a film that pretends to take conspiratorial concerns seriously while bolstering the same old elite ideologies.  Travis's blog - https://zoomchron.com/If you enjoy Psyop Cinema, check out the research anthology series Cultural Engineering Studies.

En este nuevo programa de El Palacio Enano analizamos Bugonia (2025), la nueva película de Yorgos Lanthimos, protagonizada por Emma Stone y Jesse Plemons. El director de Poor Things y Kinds of Kindness vuelve con una mezcla de comedia negra, thriller psicológico y conspiranoia absurda, en una historia donde dos hombres convencidos de que una poderosa empresaria farmacéutica es un alienígena deciden secuestrarla para salvar el planeta. Comentamos todo lo que nos ha parecido esta nueva ida de olla marca Lanthimos: sus interpretaciones, su tono incómodo, su humor retorcido y las múltiples lecturas que deja una película que ha generado bastante debate entre crítica y público. ️ Esperamos que lo disfrutéis y que nos dejéis vuestra opinión sobre Bugonia.

It's DeVaughn's birthday month and we're gettin real weird with Yorgos Lanthimos; kicking things off with his 3rd film Dogtooth. We're talking the director's signature style, exploration of taboos, and deciding if this movie is a musical or not.

Alright weirdos! We're pulling our Steampunk Train into the harbor this week as we wrap up our Heart of Stone marathon in the best way we know how–by getting strange with it. We end this marathon with a look at the unique collaboration between Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos. Poor Things is our choice here, but any of the four team ups are worth talking about. This week, we gotta talk about sex, baby. We talk about stories about women by men (as three men, we're experts in this), and we discuss Emma Stone's turn from Hollywood A-Lister to versatile artist looking for a challenging role. Join us this week as we analyze Poor Things and end our Heart of Stone marathon. 

Welcome to the second Off the Record of 2026! This time, Stewart, Rastislav and Ken have an assortment of films and shows with timely topics.Stewart brings us his feature review of 2025's Oscar nominee Bugonia, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. He was pleasantly surprised by this film's conspiracy angle, involving aliens and the mass death of bees. Emma Stone as a “suit” is victimized by Jesse Plemons and Aiden Delbis, playing brothers who raise bees off the grid and believe that Stone's company is bringing aliens to earth and consequently poisoning their bees.Ken follows with a look at 2009's US immigration drama Crossing Over, directed by Wayne Kramer. Harrison Ford, Cliff Curtis, Ashley Judd and Ray Liotta are some of the actors. Ken felt there were some story problems, but one sequence in a convenience store and a thoughtful examination of the immigration process help counter this.Rasto then leads us to The Path, a 2016 Hulu series created by Jessica Goldberg. Aaron Paul, Michelle Monaghan and Hugh Dancy are the leads in this cult-themed drama; Rasto found Dancy's performance worthy of particular praise. He enjoyed the examination of how different cults or sects operate and attract followers.Starting into the lesser picks, Stewart shines (moon)light on 2020's The Wolf of Snow Hollow, written and directed by its star Jim Cummings. Robert Forster, Riki Lindhome and Chloe East also star. Stewart doesn't think this werewolf-themed comedy/drama is worth howling over, but appreciated the practical effects and unexpected creation of suspense during the daytime.Ken's lesser pick is another Oscar nominee and also immigration-themed, 2025's One Battle After Another directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. Leonardo DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor, Benicio del Toro, Chase Infiniti and Sean Penn. Ken felt that Anderson's quirky style didn't mesh well with the examination of immigration and white supremacists; however he did enjoy the action and some of the performances.Rastislav second cult-themed entry is unfortunately disappointing; the 2025 Netflix miniseries Wayward, created by Mae Martin and starring Martin alongside Toni Collette. Rastislav didn't feel this Toronto-area set drama was as substantive in its examination of cult activity as The Path was, choosing instead to focus on topics that have already been looked at in better films.

Today on the show – a conversation about Bugonia, with the film's writer, Will Tracy. Nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay at the upcoming Academy Awards, the Yorgos Lanthimos-directed film is an black comedy thriller about a pharmaceutical CEO, Michelle, played by Emma Stone, who's kidnapped by a conspiracy theorist, Ted, played by Jesse Plemmons. Ted is convinced that Michelle is not of this planet. He's insistent that she's an infiltrator from an alien world, responsible for the collapse of Earth's bee population and plotting a full-scale invasion. The film's an adaptation of a South Korean film from 2003, Jang Joon-hwan's Save The Green Planet, but feels tailormade for 2026. After all, could you really blame someone for believing a pharmaceutical company CEO to be an alien, given the coldness they often exhibit and the corporate babble they speak. If you're someone like Ted, all that empty LinkedIn speak about “synergy” and “Q1 shortfalls” and “creative solutions” may as well be an alien language, right? That's the cleverness of the conceit in Bugonia. In 2026, there's a chasm between the boardroom overlords who steer society and the people left behind by their decisions – especially when it comes to medicine in America, Michelle's company's MO – and Will's script speaks to that chasm with sci-fi invention and offbeat humour. Right now, those of you familiar with the screenwriter's work, might be thinking: “Yeah, of course it does! Have you seen this guy's CV?” And those people have got a point. Succession! The Menu! Mountainhead, on which he acted as a producer! These are all stories laser-focused on issues of class, staring into that aforementioned chasm between the haves and have-nots from different angles. In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, I get into the thematic throughlines between some of these stories and what draws Will to them, as well as the secrets behind the most fascinating twists and turns within this story.

[REBROADCAST FROM October 21, 2025] The latest film from director Yorgos Lanthimos, 'Bugonia,' tells the story of two conspiracy theorists who become obsessed with the idea that a high-powered CEO is actually an alien, and plot to kidnap her. Jesse Plemons stars as Teddy, one of the kidnappers. Plemons and Lanthimos discuss the film, which is nominated in four categories at this year's Academy Awards.

The Oscars race is more chaotic than ever this year… which means there are a lot of movies people are telling you to watch. But which ones are actually worth the time (and the price of a cinema ticket)? Laura and Em are giving their brutally honest reviews of some of the biggest films in this year’s Best Picture race — separating the genuinely great from the ones that might only impress the film bros. There’s the blockbuster spectacle Em loved that Laura still can’t believe made it into the Oscars, a devastating drama that left an entire cinema quietly sobbing, and a bizarre twist-filled film the girls almost can’t discuss without ruining it. Plus, the wild sports movie everyone’s suddenly obsessed with, a comeback performance that could steal the night, and the one film both hosts agree we’ll probably still be talking about long after the Oscars are over.

Best known for her provocative comedy ATTENBERG and the unnervingly satirical CHEVALIER, Athina Rachel Tsangari helped define what critics dubbed the “Greek Weird Wave,” alongside longtime collaborator Yorgos Lanthimos. A longtime filmmaking hero of host Alexei, he hailed her latest film, HARVEST, as one of the very best of 2025. HARVEST is a medieval tale of modernity swallowing up tradition, it stars Caleb Landry Jones and is shot by the now legendary Sean Price Williams. There's no greater honor to have Athina Rachel Tsangari join us in The Last Video Store while she was serving on the Melbourne International Film Festival's jury.

How We Seeez It! Episode 324, Bugonia (2025) “99.9% of what's called activism is really personal exhibitionism and brand maintenance in disguise.” – Teddy As we get close to the Oscars, we've decided to take a look at a few of the Best Picture nominees, and Yorgos Lanthimos' latest film is one of them. Starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, the film has already generated major buzz, with Stone earning a nomination for Best Lead Actress—much like she did for Lanthimos' Poor Things. Will Bugonia be another big winner for the pair? Join us for our first discussion as we break down our thoughts—and, of course, don't forget about the cocktails for this episode. There should be some good ones. As always, mix a drink, have a listen, and let us know what you think.

Mike and Kenny review and spot faith presented in the Academy Award nominated and latest film by director Yorgos Lanthimos. Bugonia marks another colaboration between Lanthimos and two time Best Actress winner Emma Stone, whose second Oscar was for Lanthimos's film Poor Things. Stone stars as Michelle Fuller, a powerful CEO of a pharmaceutical company. Jesse Plemons, a 2021 Best Supporting Actor nominee co-stars as conspiracy theory obsessed beekeeper Teddy Gatz. Aiden Delbis also co-stars as Teddy's autistic cousin Don.  Likening her actions to Cology Collapse Disorder where healthy beehives suddenly collapse, Teddy believes Fuller is an Andromedan alien who is intent to destroy or force humanity into subserivence. Teddy convinces Don to assist him in kidnapping and holding Fuller hostage in an effort to be transported to the Andromedan spaceship.  Faith Spotted: As with bee hives, communities, whether faith or societal, can function, grow and live for an extended period and then quickly become dysfuntional collapse and die. Typically growth happens when the wellbeing of the collective is prioritized over the needs, fears, or desires of the individual. Fracturing happens when in response to the community facing challenge or change, and individuals or portions of the community begin to act in ways that offer them comfort and assurance based on memories of past glory and success.  Teddy resembles in the description of John the Baptist who comes in from the wilderness with a new message.  While John was preparing the way for the new message that was the Gospel of Christ, not every outsider with a new message is to be followed.  The patience of God not to do away with creation or humanity even though it is likely what is derserved. Although there is the flood account in Scripture, there have been other times when God has been tempted to do away with nations or communities, yet resisted the temptation. The continued rejection by humanity of God's grace, love and righteousness (desire) is a source of unimaginable pain to God. Because God's love is complete and perfect, the loss and pain God feels when we reject and retaliate are immeasureable. Yet God continues to love.  Dysfunctional communities such as cults etc. are based on and grow out of fear of real or perceived threats and challenges facing members. Such fear leads to a desire and need to seek to control or to follow those indviduals and groups who promise stability and control over that which is unknown or unstable, regardless of the cost. The promise of the Gospel is that life does not end in death, collapse and a tomb, but rather continues through the hope and assurance of ressurection to new life.

Bugonia stars Emma Stone as a high-powered CEO who's kidnapped by conspiracy theorists, one of whom is played by Jesse Plemons. The conflict grows more and more complex and intense — and, given that this is a Yorgos Lanthimos movie, it gets 1) very dark; and 2) very weird. Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
